Curbside Garbage Pick Up

The city of Billings has announced that they are going to phase out garbage pickup in alleys. And have everybody receive curbside garbage pick up.

Citing the cost of keeping alleys graded and passable for the big garbage trucks, they are going to convert the 16,000 remaining "Alley Dumpsters".

So, I'm wondering if that means that now everybody will have the smaller garbage cans. And also about the elderly and those who aren't physically able to wheel their can to the curb each week.

What do you think?
